I thought with no gods, we'd have less games. But things seem to be turning upside down here even more often than before.

Whatever is going on here finally caught up with me, and this thing has been following me around even more ever since this afternoon.


This isn't some sort of punishment, and people seem to be gaining abilities they didn't have before. What the hell is going on here?


[ooc: Ed's had a Milotic following him around occasionally since the bonfire. It came out during a heated "Mind your own fucking business" with Lockon, because Ed is still - clearly to anyone close to him (except Al) - disturbed and upset about killing Alphonse in that daimon plot awhile ago.]

It's just worried about you, Ed.

[alchemyxfreak]

Why would it be worried about me?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It said you were angry and fighting with Lockon.

[alchemyxfreak]

It knows Lockon's name..?

Wait. It said?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

I guess so.

... I... wait...

Yeah. It did.

[alchemyxfreak]

Al, are you feeling all right?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm feeling fine. I can just... understand what it's saying. And what the cats are saying.

[alchemyxfreak]

What else are they saying?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

That they're hungry. And the... thing that I don't know what it's called wants to give you a hug.

... Yeah.

[alchemyxfreak]

That thing can hug?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

Sort of? I think it means wrap itself around you like a hug.

[alchemyxfreak]

Did it say anything about when it plans to go back where it came from?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

No. It likes you, I think.

[alchemyxfreak]

.... It's never going to go away, is it?

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

Probably not.

[alchemyxfreak]

I don't think there's enough room for it.

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

... Maybe I can ask it if it minds sleeping outside...

[alchemyxfreak]

I don't know where it was sleeping up until now, it only shows up sometimes.

Except today, apparently.

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

I think it missed you.

[alchemyxfreak]

Well, if it wants to stay with us, we're going to have to find a place for it.

You still can't use alchemy right? It'll have to wait until we can again... Or we might have to use what we already have here.

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

No, I can't...

Maybe we can find an abandoned house or something that's big enough. It seems to like the water... maybe it can stay at the beach.

[alchemyxfreak]

What are we going to do when we move back to the Upper Level? We can't exactly rent it an extra place to live, buildings cost money up there.

That'll work as long as it stays at the beach, Al.

[kittenalchemist.livejournal.com]

True... hmm...

[alchemyxfreak]

We'll figure something out, Al.

I'm not sure how long you'll be able to understand it, but while you still can that'll probably come in handy.

Milotic.

Attracted to conflict.

Interesting.

[alchemyxfreak]

Uh.... What?

[galacticboss.livejournal.com]

The, as you so succinctly referred to it, thing.

[alchemyxfreak]

You know about it? Is it from your world?

What do you mean 'attracted to conflict'?

[galacticboss.livejournal.com]

Yes. It attempts to interfere nonviolently in arguments and the like. You should be honored. It's quite rare. I hadn't realized that any existed here.

[alchemyxfreak]

That must have been why...

Is that so? Thanks, I'll keep it in mind.

[galacticboss.livejournal.com]

...

[alchemyxfreak]

Was there something else?

[galacticboss.livejournal.com]

No.
